Update

Time is just flying by! Dominic is now 2.5 and Olivia is 6 months already! How did 1/2 a year go by that fast - - oh yeah, I know, LACK OF SLEEP!!!
Little miss Olivia has stopped being a good sleeper - she has decided to take after Dominic and wake me up every 2 hours (or less)!! Oh well, what's a Mommy to do?
Dominic on the other hand is finally(!) sleeping thru the night in his OWN bed! He does make his way to Mommy and Daddy's bed once in a while but not every night like he use to.
Olivia had her 6 month check up on Monday and is doing great. She was 16 lbs 15 oz and 28 inches long! So that puts her 100% for height and 75% for weight. She is now eating rice cereals and pureed foods. She likes just about everything so far :) Peas, carrots, squash, pears, and bananas.
The kids are keeping me really busy and longing for some ME time and girlfriend time! But again, what's a Mommy to do? lol
Here are some recent pictures:

December 2009

December was a busy month as it is for most. Family, parties and presents!
First Olivia turned 4 months on the 3rd of December. At her 4 month check up she was off the charts for her height measurement - 27 inches tall (100+%) - the doc said she was the size of an 8 month old!! Wow - watch out Dominic your sister is gonna catch up to you soon :) Her weight was 15 pounds (92%).
Dominic had a great Christmas! He really got into Santa coming to our house and leaving some presents. He got lots of new toys!
I ended up getting the flu on xmas eve and was sick for the next 6 days - that was rough with a toddler and new baby!
Here are a couple new pics to share:

A day at the park!

Today we took the kids to play at the park and have a picnic!

Olivia's 2 month check up!

Today Olivia had her 2 month well baby check up and she is going great! She is growing very well, almost too well, lol. She is smiling a lot and loves to hear her mommy, daddy and big brother talk to her. She is sleeping very well which is different for me. I am use to a baby that doesn't sleep so it has been nice. Last night she slept the best ever! She went to sleep at 9:30, woke up at 3:30 for a feeding and then slept until 8:30!! And she is actually sleeping in her crib at night which is nice because Dominic never did. Finally a baby that is getting some use out of our crib :) That makes me very happy.
Here are her stats from her appointment today: height is over the 95 percentile at 25 inches and her weight in 92% at 12.3 lbs and her head was 39 3/4 cm (I didn't get the % for that one). The doctor said she is perfect!

Here is an adorable picture I took yesterday on our walk back from the park.

Here are a few newer photos of Olivia. She is getting so big :) I can't believe she is 7 weeks today.
Things are going well with her - she is a great baby!

Welcome Olivia!

Olivia Rose Zezini has arrived!!
Born Aug 3rd at 12:54 pm
6 lbs 15 oz and 19.5 inches long
The c-section went great and baby Olivia is perfect!!
We are so happy she is here and healthy. Dominic has taken well to her for the most part. He has a few moments (in the middle of the night) when he has said "Olivia back in Mommy's tummy....that was really hard for me to hear. But I know he needs time to adjust - which he is - he hasn't made a comment like that again :)
He loves to kiss her and hug her all the time!
My recovery has been great! I think this time I am recovering even faster, if that is possible, than last time. I think I was made to have c-sections. It's not even been 1 week and I am already off the pain meds.
Keep checking back as I will update and post more pictures when I get a chance.
